Filed to story: Watch Me Win Alpha (Olivia & Ethan)
Chole.
She wore a loose cardigan, bandaged wrist visible. Her face turned pale the second she spotted me in Ethan’s passenger seat.
“Ethan!” she shouted.
He didn’t even glance back.
“ETHAN!” she screamed again, but he floored the accelerator.
I twisted toward him, livid. “What the hell are you doing?!”
“Calm down,” he said without emotion.
“You’re unbelievable.” I slumped into my seat, trying to steady my breath. “Where are you even taking me?”
Still no answer.
I turned to face him, fully. “What are you up to, Ethan? What’s your endgame here?”
Olivia’s POV
I gripped the car’s door handle so hard my knuckles whitened. The headlights cut through the darkness as Ethan raced down a highway I didn’t recognize. The speedometer read well over 100 kph. My heart pounded in time with the engine’s furious pulse.
“Ethan-please-slow down!” I shouted over the roar.
He didn’t glance at me. His jaw was tight, his eyes focuse n the road. “What are you afraid of, Liv? You afraid to die?”
My breath caught. “No. I-just want to talk, to figure this out-“
“We’re not talking anywhere!” He swerved off the highway. I felt the tires crunch over gravel.
“Where are you taking me?” I asked, voice shaking.
He slowed enough to pull onto a narrow, wooded path. Rain had recently fallen; the air smelled of moss and pine resin.
“I don’t know,” he said, voice calm, eerily gentle. “But tonight, we’re alone-just you and me.”
Alarm buzhed in my ears. “Ethan-this isn’t right. Let me go. We can end this without…” I swallowed.
Without violence. I didn’t even let the thought finish.
He glanced at me then. “You keep talking like we’re over. Like it’s done. But we’re still married.” His grip tightened on the steering wheel.
I swallowed hard. My pulse raced. “Yes, we are. That’s why I want you to sign the papers-“
He shook his head. “No. You don’t want a divorce. You want a punishment.” Teeth clenched, he muttered, “Maybe I’ll teach you a lesson tonight.”
What lesson was he talking about? Ethan was scaring me to beyond my nerves now. I knew I would need help now.
My hand slid into my pocket. My spare phone was there. I waited till he didn’t notice, thumb trembling. I tapped my screen and sent my location to Ava.”Please come. I’m scared.”
He glanced over at me. “What are you doing?”
I swallowed the text. “Nothing.”
He didn’t press it.
Dark trees loomed through the window as we climbed deeper into the forest. Each turn was more remote. Finally, the engine coughed and died. The headlights dimmed to black. Night swallowed us.
“Out of gas,” he said, voice flat. “Cute location, don’t you think?”
I forced calm. “We can call roadside-the light’s on
RedEmergency.” I pointed.
He scoffed. “No bars,” he muttered.
He lit a cigarette. Smoke curled toward the ceiling. He stared at me with that inscrutable gaze, then said, “So… just us.”
My pulse thundered in my ears. “What are you doing, Ethan?”
He took a hit off the cigarette and tapped ash off the window.
“Last few weeks… you pushed for a divorce. You threatened to go public.”‘ He leaned in. “Tonight is the only way I can show you who owns you.”
My breath hitched.
I stepped back. “What… what do you mean?”
He grabbed my shoulders with one hand and yanked me down so his chest pressed into mine. His face loomed close-his breath heavy with mint and regret.
“We’re married,” he growled. “Even the police can’t stop me for what I am about to do now. My word means more than any number of phone calls, text messages, or cameras. You can’t stop me.”
Tears welled. My mind raced:He’s trying to scare me into compliance.
I pushed. Couldn’t budge him. “Ethan… if you do this, it’s rape. I…
I’ll press charges.”
He leaned forward so his breath grazed my ear. “You used to be all about work. You always insisted on condoms. But not tonight.” He straightened.
I felt his alpha power-an aura of dominance, heat, control. My throat closed.
He paused. Lowered voice, close enough to feel his lips near my hair. “Maybe… next month, you’ll be pregnant with my pup.”
The words slid across my skin like cold steel. My knees trembled.
He smirked down at me-triumph, intent.
Olivia’s POV
“Ethan, let me go!” I shouted, shoving at his chest, but it was like trying to move a wall. He didn’t flinch. My voice trembled with panic. “You’re insane-this isn’t you. What are you even doing?!”
He leaned in, his mouth brushing against my ear as he spoke, “Let’s make a wager, hmm? If I can’t get you pregnant tonight, I’ll let you go. But if I can…” His lips trailed down to my cheek, “You’ll come home with me. Be my Luna again.”
I jerked my head away and glared at him, breathing hard. “Who do you think you are? You don’t get to decide what happens to me anymore, Ethan. You lost that right the second you me.” trayed
He exhaled and dropped his cigarette out the cracked window.
“You say that, but I know you still feel it too. You and me… all these times we had been together” Then, without warning, he surged forward. I screamed and tried to twist away, hitting at his shoulder, but his grip tightened around my wrists.
“No-no! Get off me!” I gasped, my voice rising with fear. “You’re hurting me!”
